SESSION 1

REPORT

Despite the Red forces putting up consistent waves of defending aircraft, the blue air force managed to stem the tide which assisted the ground offence to make some ground.

Gaziantep which started out under Red control was re-captured and despite an attempt by Red forces to take it back (they managed to get a convoy very close to the airfield perimeter and were able to take out some of the NASAMS) it remains in Blue control. The ground team have worked hard and have managed to get one of the NASMA launchers operational again.

The Alpha FOB is back under Blue control after being briefly taken by a Red patrol.

The red held towns of Abu Talhah and Harim were targeted by helicopter and air strikes and have taken losses to their defenses but still need further attention before we can send in troops to capture them.

The key Red airfield of Aleppo suffered many hits but still remains fully operational and must be considered a key target for the next attack if Blue forces are to progress into Red territory.

Hatay remains the key front line airfield with flights of F4, F14, F16 and F18 being ferried there to be available for the next mission (see below)

Fruitbat was the first pilot to hit 1000 points but was sadly killed on that "one last attack" so suffered a 10 point penalty.......

MISSION TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE

All players seemed to be reporting good frames (unlike previous attempts to run the mission :( ) so it looks like my changes have been a good step forward. I have loaded the mission up on my machine this morning in order to grab the screen shots and it loaded with no problems so looking good for the next session.

Feedback regarding AI spawns was that it could be spaced a bit more so I will update the enemy spawn delay from between the current 5 to 8 minutes out to 5 to 15 minutes.

Many thanks to all those attended and I hope you enjoyed the experience.

Bravo Col! Great session, really enjoyed it thank you. Even if I did make a meal of it at the start. 😁

Really appreciate your expertise and persistence with this, and kudos to Kev and others who have offered additional assistance and testing.

Working together for a common goal across many different platforms really offers that extra dimension.

Aleppo gonna get it next week. :salute:

PHASE 1 - SESSION 2

Red air resistance continue to be a constant threat, although not as intense as in the first engagement, however, they still managed to claim a number a victories. Blue air force certainly gave as good as they got, if not actually winning more duels and enabling the ground war to continue.

Aleppo was again the main target and its defensive units taking multiple hits. It still remains operational however.

Ground was made to the South East of Hatay with the town of Abu Talhah being captured by units of the 82nd deployed by Ch-47. Despite being taken there are still some Red resistance units in the area who will no doubt stage an attempt to recapture it at the next opportunity so some thought should be given to protecting the Blue ground units that are occupying.

Alpha FOB became fully operational again for rearm and refuel following the arrival of a supply convoy.

Harim has again taken significant damage and may well also be ready for an assault. Advise strongly that further recon takes place before committing boots on the ground.

LOGISTICS

Hatay was again supplied with ferried aircraft and the stocks are as follows

During the course of the mission stocks of Hellfire type "K" missiles were nearly depleted and a re-supply mission was required. Stocks were flown in my Ch-47 from Incirlik.

MISSION TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE 

No major issues were report and the session seemed to run smoothly.

From the scores we can see that @DD_Fenrir has flown under different pilot IDs and his score has been split over the two sessions so far. It is therefore recommended pilots join the campaign with the same name to ensure your scores are maintained correctly.

SUMMARY

I hope you all enjoyed this session and I look forward to next week when we might finally get our hands on Aleppo.

PHASE 1 SESSION 3

Yet another stern fight put up by Red forces that managed inflict a number of casualties on the blue air force however they continue to give as good as they get and took out a number of the enemy flights.

Aleppo remains operational however it again sustained significant damage to operational ground units, it must surly now be within blue forces grasp.

The ground offensive has gone well with the two keys towns of Abu Talhuh and Harim at last being captured. Abu Talhuh was especially difficult to hold with it changing hands a couple of times with close quarters street fighting seen. Harim, although captured will need to be protected as convoys of enemy units have already been reported as approaching from the south west and should be given a high status level.

LOGISTICS

Planes were again ferried from Incirlik down to Hatay and the status is a follows

There may also be some F5's but the hanger was closed and locked so I was not able to do a stock count. If you know how many are there please let me know.

Although the plane situation looks OK, we are getting critical with ordnance supplies as resources have been running down and will need to be re-supplied from Adana by CH-47

MISSION TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE

No system wide issues were reported and on the whole the mission seemed again to run smooth with no issues. @PapaBear  reported some frame stutters and @delta7 reported some odd issues but both these seemed to have been localized.

SUMMARY

Another intense session with lots of action and complexities thrown up.

Looks like mk82's, 120c's and kilo hellfires are a priority. 

How are we doing for harms (agm 88's)?

Thanks for your efforts Colin

what are your  thoughts on the amount of enemy air activity? I feel it is slightly too much as every time I loaded with bombs I had to ditch these and go air to air

@delta7 - Funnily enough I posted the below in the chat at the top of the forum this morning;

To all that play the campaign - Are the new AI flight gaps working out ok? is action intense enough?

This seems to be the opposite of what you are experiencing.

Thoughts anyone else?

Is it a case we need to be more coordinated with our missions?

This.

Get on comms and ask for air to air cover for anyone who is planning an air to ground sortie. If we organised ourselves into strike packages everyone's survivability would most likely go up....
